I jerked up in bed, chest heaving, heart pounding -- which
was odd since my heart barely beat while I slept the day away. My heartbeat faded
to almost nothing, much like a hibernating animal. I suppose that had given
rise to the myth that vampires died each sunrise.

It took me a few of those heartbeats to realize the pounding
came from my soul mate’s heart, not mine. Six hundred years ago she’d been
captured by a mercenary vampire and his battle wizard. The wizard had kept her
poisoned and magically bound while he tortured her. That’d give anyone
nightmares.

In the weeks since we’d bonded, I’d started sharing her
dreams. Vampires don’t dream, and we sure as hell don’t have nightmares! I
could have gone the rest of my ageless life without one, thank you very much.

Raven stirred restlessly, soaked in sweat from her
nightmare.

“It’s alright, Raven, you’re safe here.” I pulled her close
to offer what comfort I could.

Barely awake, she nestled into my arms. I stroked her back
soothingly.

“Thank ye, Ilario. Perhaps I should sleep elsewhere so as no
to wake you.” She rolled to her back, staring at the ceiling rather than face
me.

I chuckled. “And miss an excuse to hold your naked body?
Never!“ I tease my hand across her flat stomach. Her breath caught and my cock
twitched to life in response. She’d spent much of the week eating and resting
to regain the strength she’d lost. She seemed better today; maybe she’d feel up
to a little playtime…

She arched her neck into my kiss. “Mmm, that feels good,
Ilario. Do na stop.”

I was never one to ignore a lady’s pleas. I let my hand
caress its way up to cup her warm, full breasts. The pace of her pulse
quickened beneath my lips as I kissed along the large vein of her neck. My
fangs erupted, ready to taste the ambrosia of her blood. But after her ordeal,
she needed all of it.

The smell of coffee, bacon, eggs, and, I think, toast
interrupted. Wulf toed the door farther open and crossed the room with a large
bed tray laden with breakfast. Wulf, our werewolf mate, and Raven, had decided
to eat breakfast when they woke, regardless of the time of day. Living with a
vampire tended to mess with normal habits.

Wulf offered her the tray and then crawled up on the huge
bed to join us. While they ate, I ran over the images from her nightmare.
Sometimes I could almost see the faces of her tormentors. Nothing I’d love more
than to make them pay for what they’d done.

Wulf and I had encouraged her to talk about her past, but so
far she’d refused. Perhaps she just needed more time to feel comfortable with
us, or maybe she wanted to spare her mates some of her pain. Either way, her
refusal had started to piss me off. We’re her soul mates! And knowing a vampire
had captured her, I felt sure I would recognize at least some of those
bastards.

Maybe that was why she refused to give names.

“Ilario.”

I realized Wulf had called my name at least twice. “Sorry,
what did you say?”

“Care to join us for a shower?” He stood in the doorway,
gloriously naked, his thick cock already at attention. My own sprang to life in
a rush of passion.

“Oh, hell, yes!” I threw off the covers and followed.

* * *

I loved our huge glassed in shower. Double rain heads arched
out of either end, leaving plenty of room for two, or even three. Raven stood
under one of the heads, eyes closed, head thrown back as the water coursed down
her chest. Her copper hair fell along the creamy curves of her back. My cock throbbed,
arching up in anticipation.

My attention turned to Wulf, soaking down at the other end.
Rivulets of water coursed down his chest, the curly hair funneling it toward
his ruddy, hard cock. It split around the broad width before spilling in twin
streams off his balls. Blood rushed south and fire filled me. Shit, I loved
that man’s body.

I palmed my cock, giving it a firm stroke before stepping in
between them. I trailed my finger down her back, eliciting a shiver and soft
moan from her.

My other hand reached for Wulf’s massive cock, teasing
around his foreskin, stroking his length. He stepped into my grip, pumping his
hips. A groan rumbled from his chest followed by a whine pf protest when I
turned away.

Grabbing a handful of body wash, I pressed up against her
back. I started washing her shoulders, working my way down to thoroughly wash
her breasts. She moaned and leaned her head back against me. Her nipples
peaking under my touch had my cock twitching with need.

Strong male hands kneaded shampoo into my hair until the
suds ran down the sides of my face and neck. His fingers played across my scalp
momentarily distracting me from my ministrations.

Raven wiggled her breast in my hand and her sweet ass
against my throbbing cock. I dipped enough to let it slide between her thighs
and brush across her sex. She moaned and squeezed her legs around my length.
Heat ran from my cock to emerge as a moan of pleasure.

Wulf moved, leaving my back suddenly bereft of his warmth.
He poured shampoo on Raven’s head and I shifted around to her front to give him
room.

She soaped up my front and then we pressed together, rubbing
our bodies together in a sensual wash. Her taut nipples teased across my chest
and her mons ground against my cock. I flipped it down between her legs,
letting it rub across the lips of her pussy. Our lips met, passing moans of
pleasure back and forth.

Wulf’s strong hands reached around her to grasp my
shoulders. We pressed her between us, slick soap letting our bodies glide
across each other in a sensual dance.

She gasped and moaned, thrusting her hips forward and back
across my cock. Wulf bent and slid his cock under mine. Oh hell, yeah! Her
silky thighs, wet pussy and his hard length all rubbing different sides of my
cock. Each thrust sent shockwaves of sensations flowing through me. Oh Yeah!

Then she pressed her thighs tighter around us. Shit! My
balls drew up and I felt my seed near to spilling! My fangs ached to taste her
rich blood. I turned my face away.

I struggled to hold on just a bit longer. Raven grabbed my
ass with one hand and the other rimmed my puckered hole then pressed hard. OH
Shit! Convulsions of ecstasy rocked me as my seed pumped from my cock spraying
across her pussy lips, Wulf’s cock and balls. His howl followed soon after. I
felt every spasm of his cock as his cum spurted out, prolonging my own climax.

Slipping a hand between us, I rolled and pressed her clit;
Wulf slipped his fingers in from behind, fucking her pussy hard. Her body
shuddered between us as she came hard. Her cries of passion echoed in the shower.

We held onto each other letting the hot water sluice over
our sated bodies and enjoying the after glow.

“Shit! That was amazing. I never want to shower alone
again.” Wulf’s deep voice rumbled through our embrace. He finally let go and I
stumbled back to lean against the wall.

Raven snickered. “Aye, I like the way ye scrub me.”

I just laughed and bumped her out from under the spray with
my hip. “Easy to say when you’re hogging the water.”

Wulf laughed, pulling her under the water with him,

I closed my eyes, letting the water rinse down my face.
Totally relaxed, my thoughts wandered. An image sprang to mind, a face from her
nightmares.
